With everything I've seen on here, it would be a ridiculous job. I used to moderate the Gentoo forums which was nice and relaxing. But the trolls run ramped here lol!

Trolls are the harmless little monkeys right now.... It's the SportsStream spammers and other jerks who found loopholes & took over entire forums like an Australian Guild takes over WvWvW at night... thems the ones ya gotta worry about until GW2 stops being a cashcow

(no I'm not posting for indication of interest... I already served time as (more like was sentenced to) an admin /w mod duties elsewhere and ain't goin back b/c in order to be a model-moderator, your best option is not to share your public opinions on most things, and when you do, you have to have an apologetic tone whenever it's something controversial)

Does a recent drop in activity since GW2 came out count as not "holding up"? I was kind of too busy playing Guild Wars 2 to post as much as I used to

Was mostly referring to posting behaviors. Activity is an important thing to look at too, but not something that can be such an easy deal-breaker. We would hope (expect) one could moderate with a fair amount of activity, but it isn't like you're signing up for a full time job here

Always fun to see new moderators being recruited. I love that you have an IRC channel! I would have applied, but I'm not an enthusiast about gw2, I just enjoy it. Better stay out of competing with the real fieryhearted people GL in recruiting new good mods, in adition to the good moderators you already have

I guess it'd be more appropriate to say, those that enjoy and actively play the game. We're not looking for extremely diehard fans or anything, but people that actually enjoy the game and keep up with game mechanics and the like.

Feel free to PM me if you have a question regarding moderation, want to leave some feedback, or just want to chat!
